Tried, but the damper turns....
I finally took a spark plug socket and ground down the lead-in taper, and with the fork cap still installed (and the wheel axle in the axle clamps to prevent rotation), and I can get that large external valve nut to turn, but it feels like the damper internally is turning.
Is this possible? I thought the valve was threaded into the axle clamp itself, but looking at the manual, this doesn't look to be the case.
You mentioned using an impact wrench. If I can turn it by hand, would an impact wrench somehow over-ride the damper rotation and back the valve out?
